Lining blank has palm portion 1 with thumb inner side portion 2, index finger 3, and index finger back portion 4 therewith.

Additionally from the lining blank palm the full back for the index finger with resultant, saving in lining material. Second finger back lining blank 10 has starting indication points Swith dotted portions, 9 show-' ing departure from full second finger back form. Third finger back lining 11 has starting indication points 8 with dotted line portions 9 showing the departureof this blank from third" full finger back form. Little finger blank 12 shows starting indication points 8, 13, with dotted portion 9 showing departurefroni full little finger blank withresultant savingin lining material in the back for this finger. Thumb back lining blank '14: has dotted portion 9 indicating the departure from full thumb blank as the saving in line ing material for, the thumb. The fullline portion (Fig. 4) near the dotted portion 9 discloses for this'blank a straight side from adjacent the wrist terminus inclined from the upper right and extending toward'the from the'mid-point of the wrist portion to the] STATES "PATENT oF-Fi Ju extreme tip of the thumb. Thumb back fac ing blank 15 is a deshaped element and in the instanceherein shown may be ofleather; I

Palm facing '16 may also "be of leather. Thumb; front 17 may beintegral with the I palm facin 16 and integral with index'finger 18, second finger 19, third finger 20, and little finger 21.

From index finger extension 22 there mayas well as U-fourc hette 25 for the third fin- I ger back and U-fourchette 26 for the little finger back protect the tips of the fingers as well as provide protection between the fingers for the full extentof the fourchettes, While the knuckleportions of the back of the fingers are shielded only by the cloth lining to thus maintain ample flexibility in use.

Closing up of the gloveis an assembling of these fourchette and lining elements with the palm facing portions. Stitching 27 serves to engage marginal portions of the finger back linings in the narrow regions accordingly, only terminally tacked.

and tack such lining spaced from the finger tip, While closing in seam 28 terminally tacks the fourchettes with the finger front facing portions as well as the finger front lining portions. These finger front lining portions are, The narrowing of these finger front lining portions permits interfitting in cutting the blanks as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 12. This means a saving in yardage. WVhile the leather is usually cut from the fragmentary portions of hide, the interfitting features of the semi-U or J and the full U portions are features permitting economy in the cutting of v such with the fourchette material in the flat with ready adaptation to the form of the finger backs; There is, accordingly, in the showing herein, economy in lining material, as well as in facing material cutting of the blanks. The assembly of the fourchettes with the linings is simple. This is followed by single closing in seam 28 for assembling the fourchette and back lining with the front facing and lining. Thereafter, cuff patch 29 and gauntlet 80 may be assembled in completing the glove.

WVhat is claimed and it is desired to secure by United States Letters Patent is;

' 1. A. thumb back lining blank having a tip, a wrist terminus, said blank on one side tapered outward from both the tip and the Wrist terminus, and on the opposite side eX- tending straight from. adjacent the wrist terminus and inclined to a line from the midportion of the wrist to the extreme tip of the thumb lining blank.

2. A thumb back lining blank having a tip, a wrist terminus, said blank on one side tapered outward from both the tip and the wrist terminus, and on the opposite side extending straight from adjacent the wrist term nus and lnclln'ed to aline from the mid v portion of the wrist to the extreme tip of the thumb lining blank, a palm lining blank having an integral thumb lining portion for opposing said thumb back lining, said palm lining blankbeing provided with a crotch be tween the other fingers, finger back blanks, a
